Survey AI product names with a swarm of search agents
The author had a swarm of Claude agents run 4,654 searches to catalog AI bot names and analyze naming trends by gender, industry and year.
Done withClaude
- What they did
- Prompted by an AI bot name they found silly, the author wanted to see what everyone calls their AI. They had a swarm of Claude agents run 4,654 searches to collect AI bot names. They then looked at trends in the names, including gender, industry and launch year. The source gives no further detail on the setup.
- How it went
- Most AI bots with human names have feminine ones, though this shifts by industry. Self-named bot launches appear to be waning, with notably fewer in 2026 than 2025. The author shares favorite names.
Try it yourself with Claude
I want to survey [a category of names, e.g. AI product names] and find naming trends by [dimensions, e.g. gender, industry, year]. Run many web searches in parallel to collect as many examples as you can, record each name with its source and attributes, then analyze the patterns. Finish with a table of the data plus a short summary of the main trends and any gaps in coverage.
